The information you provide should be accurate, in your own words, and make sense to students your age.
Pictures, video clips, and weblinks should help explain to the information in your amendment (we don't need "style" pictures).
Anytime you use a picture, videoclip, or information which was not created by you, you need to cite your source by providing a name and a link to the place where you found the item. You can't use just any image or videoclip. Make sure you have permission before posting. You can hit right click and copy paste the info in "properties" to cite pictures, etc.
